Our 7th grade history students have just completed their novel unit featuring Prisoner B-3087 by Alan Gratz. Through this powerful historical novel, students explored themes of resilience, survival, and courage.

Students are now beginning an exciting new phase of the unit by selecting another Alan Gratz novel of their choice from a collection of 19 different titles. Each option is rooted in history, allowing students to continue strengthening their reading skills while learning about real historical events through engaging fiction.
